This exclusive offer is a tribute to one of America’s famous gunsmiths, Henry Deringer, who designed The Philadelphia Deringer, a popular concealed carry percussion handgun of the era. Because of their small size and easy availability, Deringers sometimes had the dubious reputation of being a popular assassin tool. John Wilkes Booth fired the most famous Deringer used for this purpose in President Abraham Lincoln’s assassination. This Bourbon is aged in new charred white oak casks. Minimal batch offering. Unmatched character and incredibly smooth.
A formidable bourbon whiskey presented in an exquisite crystal decanter designed by a famous glass artist, H. Deringer Bourbon Whiskey is a classy and considered statement piece for collector's and connoisseurs, which includes a unique cork modelled on the iconic Deringer pistol. Silky smooth and aged in new charred white oak casks, this small batch bourbon offering from Deringer featured 2987 bottles in the first release.
